Severe Deep Moist Convective Storms: Forecasting and Mitigation
Geography Compass, 2007 Abstract Small‐scale (2–20 km) circulations, termed ‘severe deep moist convective storms’, account for a disproportionate share of the world's insured weather‐related losses. Spatial frequency maximums of severe convective events occur in South Africa, India, Mexico, the Caucasus, and Great Plains/Prairies region of North America ...

Examination of the Physical Process of Severe Convective Windstorms
, 2022 Downbursts are strong downdrafts that induce an outburst of damaging winds at or near the ground, and a microburst is a very small downburst with an outflow diameter of less than 4 km and a lifetime of fewer than 5 minutes.

Weather, EarlyView.This study documents the unseasonal and prolonged heavy rain events which occurred in southern China during April 2024. In this series of extreme rainfall events, Guangdong province recorded extreme rainfall exceeding 6‐sigma of climatology, with eleven cities reporting record‐breaking rainfall.

Mesoscale weather influenced by auroral gravity waves contributing to conditional symmetric instability release? [PDF]
Advances in Science and ResearchWe consider possible influence on severe weather occurrence in the context of solar wind coupling to the magnetosphere–ionosphere–atmosphere system, mediated by aurorally excited atmospheric gravity waves. Solar wind high-speed streams from coronal holes

Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong
Weather, EarlyView.This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.

IMPACTS OF AEROSOL ON CONVECTIVE STORMS AND PRECIPITATION [PDF]
, 2019 Aerosol-cloud interactions (ACI) remain the largest uncertainty in projections of its future changes in climate in response to the buildup of greenhouse gases, even though they have been extensively investigated.

Winter severity for white‐tailed deer in Alberta, Canada
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.Abstract Winter Severity Indices (WSIs) are especially important for white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), a species for which population dynamics often are tied to winter conditions throughout much of their range. However, existing WSIs often oversimplify environmental variability, limiting their ability to support effective management decisions.

Rare Lightning and Convection Characteristics During Two Successive Tornadoes in Southern China
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Systematic investigations into lightning characteristics of tornado storms in China remain scarce. This study comprehensively analyses rare lightning behaviour and overshooting top characteristics for two successive tornadoes during a long‐lived supercell in southern China on 27 April 2024.

Severe Storms Online Meterology Guide
, 1997 The Severe Storms Module is a combination of two elements. The first is the NOAA Severe Storms Spotters Guide. The second is a section recently added to discuss the efforts and results of modeling severe storms.
